Close To Mendocino, Fort Bragg Hotels Are More Down To Earth

Fort Bragg was once a centre of industry for logging and fishing, but these industries have both deteriorated in recent years and this town now finds itself a centre for tourist trade. Fort Bragg hotels are far more down to earth and therefore cheaper than hotels in Mendocino, as Mendocino is this particular coastline’s commercial centre.

The urban sprawl of Mendocino has seen to it that very little new business is able to start up. So business owners of enterprises such as galleries, restaurants and boutiques have taken their business down the road to Fort Bragg. There is more space available and a good tourist trade.

Because of this tourists and locals are making this town a popular place to visit and in March during the Whale Festival, as well as during the Labor Day Weekend, Fort Brag finds itself a hive buzzing with activity.

There are plenty of hotels and guesthouses in Fort Bragg, where guest will find them-selves more than comfortable. For example the Grey Whale Inn, it is a very short walk to the beach from this beautiful redwood building was originally built as a hospital in 1915.

Expansive hallways and large guest rooms, each with their own unique features, will ensure you get that country-beach, relaxed feeling. Breakfast is served in the breakfast-room; however a nice feature is that trays are provided, so you are able to take your breakfast back to bed with you if you wish.

For a slightly different kind of accommodation the “Beachcomber Motel” is well priced and although the style is very different from many of the antique and lace filled rooms of the local Fort Bragg B&B’s. Accommodation is still more than adequate for anyone’s needs. The rooms are comfortable and all the necessities available.

Rooms can be had from budget to luxury, and there are also rooms available with kitchenettes. So if you want to cook you own meals you can and there is also a barbeque are for guests to use. Although this motel does not have all the bells and whistles of many of the Fort Brag hotels and B&B’s, it is still more than adequate to provide for anyone’s needs.

The North Coast Brewing Company is one of the liveliest venues in Fort Bragg. The locals and visitors alike enjoy this popular hot spot. It was voted one of the best 10 breweries in the world in 1998, so is worth a special visit.
